Kyle Hill, known pro-nuclear science communicator, was banned from the Reddit community r/NuclearPower for his pro-nuclear stance.

Turns out the community has been taken over by anti-nuclear mod(s).

Posting about this I’ve been banned too 😂

If you remain on Reddit, r/Nuclear is still a valid community. Otherwise we exist of course!

Did you actually watch the video, or dismiss it out of hand based solely on the thumbnail?

Stuff like this.

Where did I ever say I watched a video?

I clicked OPs link, it's the YouTubers threads account, so I clicked on that profile, and saw a bunch of dumb shit.

Why would I ever want to then go to their YouTube page and watch any of their videos?

Like, you have no idea what we're talking about, but you're very opinionated about it.

If you want to learn about nuclear physics, it takes a little.more than watching YouTube videos, and that's definitely not the only way to learn...

"Like, you have no idea what we’re talking about, but you’re very opinionated about it."

Thought that was an apt summary of your posts on Kyle.

"This writer sucks and knows nothing, look at the cover"

"But did you even read the book"

"When did I ever say I did, I don't want to open it, why are you so opinionated"

You kind of have to consume something before people think you have a valid opinion on it. He was calling you out on it and he's clearly right, you don't have to be a baby about it.
